I don't know why but, I actually LIKE this thing! It has a sort of "Mad Max" look to it. I'd drive the hell out of that. _________________ Formerly known in the forums as "OVALTEEN"

Crank flex would probably be an issue at high RPMs. Not to mention all the cooling problems. They'd be much better off building a coupled engine. Still, very cool. |
